CDA cooking covers the main built-in appliances for a kitchen: electric single and double ovens, gas and induction hobs, a venting induction hob, a built-in microwave with grill and warming drawers. Most come in black. Some ovens, a gas hob and a warming drawer also come in stainless steel, so it is easy to build a matching set around one finish. Controls are simple rotary dials and touch panels, which suits anyone who wants dependable cooking without app connectivity.
The CDA built-in ovens include two kinds of double oven. The built-in version sits in a tall housing at eye level and pairs a 59 litre fan main oven with a 39 litre second oven. The built-under version fits below the worktop with smaller 50 and 35 litre cavities, which helps where there is no room for a tall unit. Single ovens offer 65 or 77 litres, and several have eleven functions. Cleaning is where they differ most. The double ovens have easy clean enamel and most single ovens use steam cleaning. One single oven has pyrolytic cleaning, which burns grease to ash at high heat and needs less scrubbing, though pyrolytic ovens usually cost more. Another has a steam assist cavity for adding moisture as food cooks.
The CDA hobs offer gas or induction. On the gas side there is a 59 cm four-burner hob in stainless steel and a 70 cm five-burner gas-on-glass hob in black. Both have flame failure safety devices, cast iron pan supports and LPG compatibility. Induction hobs run from 60 cm to 77 cm, and some have bridging zones that join two zones into one for larger pans. There is also a plug and play induction model. The 80 cm venting induction hob draws steam down through the hob itself, so it can replace one of the CDA cooker hoods if you want the space above clear.
To finish the kitchen, there is a 25 litre microwave with grill and warming drawers that hold six place settings at 40 to 80°C, for warming plates or keeping food hot. To narrow the choice, decide first whether your oven goes at eye level or under the counter. Then choose between gas and induction, and decide whether pyrolytic cleaning or a venting hob is worth the extra cost.
